Senior Software Developer In Test Jobs in Orem, UT

The Opportunity

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join one of our high-impact engineering squads. In this role, you will serve as a technical leader - designing complex systems, driving architectural decisions, mentoring engineers, and delivering high-quality software across our cloud-native Evolution DMS platform. You will work at the intersection of scale, performance, and user impact, tackling some of the hardest problems in our stack.

This is a full-time position with the opportunity to work in a collaborative, Agile environment where your decisions carry real weight.

What You'll Do

• Lead technical design and architecture for complex, cross-functional features - evaluating trade-offs, defining patterns, and ensuring solutions are scalable, maintainable, and performant across a large enterprise-grade codebase.
• Build and own platform-level frameworks used by other engineering squads - including authentication/authorization systems, API development tooling, webhook infrastructure, messaging pipelines, AI integrations, and CI/CD tooling.
• Drive engineering excellence through code reviews, architectural guidance, and establishing best practices that raise the bar for the entire team.
• Mentor and develop junior and mid-level engineers through pairing, design reviews, and knowledge sharing - fostering a culture of continuous learning (teaching experience a strong plus).
• Own end-to-end delivery of features from design through production - writing clean, efficient, well-documented code in Java, Kotlin, and TypeScript adhering to team standards.
• Lead and execute complex integrations with third-party systems - including payment processors, identity providers, OEM data feeds, and external APIs - ensuring resilience, security, and maintainability.
• Champion performance and reliability - proactively identify and resolve bottlenecks, design for failure, and implement resilience patterns (circuit breakers, caching strategies, backoff/retry) across our service integrations.
• Drive cloud infrastructure decisions on AWS - including serverless architecture (Lambda, API Gateway), container orchestration (EKS), messaging (SNS/SQS, RabbitMQ), and data services (RDS PostgreSQL, ElastiCache/Redis, DynamoDB).
• Manage and evolve CI/CD pipelines - automating build, test, and deployment processes using GitLab CI, Gradle, Terraform, and Serverless Framework to enable rapid, consistent releases across environments.
• Lead incident response and root cause analysis for high-severity production issues, translating findings into actionable architectural improvements.
• Contribute to infrastructure as code using Terraform, supporting reproducible, version-controlled AWS environment provisioning.
• Maintain and improve technical documentation in Confluence, ensuring architectural decisions, patterns, and runbooks are accessible and up to date.
• Evaluate and adopt emerging technologies - including AI/ML tooling - making recommendations that align with long-term platform direction.

What You Should Have

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field with 5+ years of professional software engineering experience; or equivalent experience in lieu of a degree.
• Deep expertise in Java / Kotlin / Groovy and the Jakarta EE ecosystem - including JPA, Wildfly/JBoss, or Spring - with a strong command of object-oriented and functional design principles.
• Strong proficiency in TypeScript and JavaScript - including Node.js and modern backend frameworks such as NestJS - with the ability to contribute across the full stack.
• Demonstrated ability to architect and deliver distributed, cloud-native systems at scale - including microservices, event-driven architectures, and RESTful API design.
• Integrate AI-assisted development tools (such as GitHub Copilot, Claude, or equivalent) into day-to-day engineering workflows - including code generation, automated code review, test authoring, and documentation - to improve individual and team productivity without compromising code quality or security standards.
• Extensive hands-on experience with AWS - specifically Lambda, API Gateway, CloudFront, S3, SNS, SQS, EKS, ElastiCache, and DynamoDB - and a track record of deploying and operating production workloads in cloud environments.
• Advanced proficiency with PostgreSQL and other data stores (Redis/Valkey, MongoDB) - including query optimization, indexing strategies, and schema design.
• Proven experience designing and implementing authentication and authorization systems - including OAuth 2.0, OIDC, and integration with identity providers such as Okta and FusionAuth.
• Proficiency with containerization and orchestration - Docker and Kubernetes/EKS - at a production operations level.
• Demonstrated experience leading or contributing to large-scale migrations - including legacy system rewrites, on-prem to cloud migrations, or major platform re-architectures.
• Solid understanding of messaging and event-driven systems - RabbitMQ, SNS/SQS, and ETCD-backed configuration management.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills with a demonstrated ability to influence technical direction across teams.

Preferred Qualifications:

• AWS Certification (Cloud Practitioner, Solutions Architect, or AI Practitioner) strongly preferred.
• Experience on a developer platform or framework team - building shared tooling, libraries, and infrastructure that other engineering squads build on top of.
• Familiarity with AI/ML integration patterns in production software - including LLM APIs, prompt engineering, or agentic workflow tooling.
• Solid experience with infrastructure as code using Terraform and deployment automation using Serverless Framework and GitLab CI.
• Experience with desktop application development and migration from legacy desktop (Swing or equivalent) to modern web/React front ends.
• Experience building and maintaining third-party payment integrations (e.g., WorldPay, Stripe, or equivalent payment processors), with strong understanding of PCI compliance considerations.
• Experience with build tooling - Gradle, Ant, or equivalent - in large multi-module Java projects.
• Familiarity with test-driven development (TDD), Jest, and maintaining high code coverage standards across unit, integration, and regression testing.
• Experience with observability tooling - Datadog, distributed tracing, structured logging, and defining SLOs/SLIs for production services.
• Prior experience in a teaching, mentoring, or adjunct instruction role is a meaningful differentiator and reflects the collaborative culture we value.
• Working knowledge of Linux/Unix systems and scripting (Python or Bash).
• Oracle Certified Java Programmer or equivalent certification a plus.
